JacketCoach - Sport Mate Finder

Java Android Firebase Google API

JacketCoach was a team project developed as part of the class 8803 MAS - Mobile Applications and Services at Georgia Tech.

JacketCoach is an Android application designed to help users find partners for pick-up games of any sport.
The app opens on a map showing pick-up games around you. If you want to create your own game, you simply enter a few details, and your event is registered. Each event includes:

  • Sport
  • Maximum number of players
  • Gear to bring (e.g., a ball)
  • Weather conditions for the event to happen
  • Description of the event

User profiles and events are stored in a Firebase database, and the map used in the app is powered by the Google Maps API.

The application is currently at a proof-of-concept (POC) stage and would require further development to become a full MVP. Despite that, we had a lot of fun building it, and I personally learned a lot as it was my first experience with Android development.
